Detective Sean Duffy Series

Publisher's Summary

Winner of the 2017 Edgar Award Rain Dogs, a stunning installment in the Sean Duffy thriller series, following the Edgar Award-nominated Gun Street Girl, is "another standout in a superior series" (Booklist). It's just the same things over and again for Sean Duffy: riot duty, heartbreak, cases he can solve but never get to court. But what detective gets two locked-room mysteries in one career? When journalist Lily Bigelow is found dead in the courtyard of Carrickfergus castle, it looks like a suicide. Yet there are a few things that bother Duffy just enough to keep the case file open, which is how he finds out that Bigelow was working on a devastating investigation of corruption and abuse at the highest levels of power in the UK and beyond. And so Duffy has two impossible problems on his desk: Who killed Lily Bigelow? And what were they trying to hide?

What the Critics Say

"McKinty expertly balances Duffy's tense and suspenseful investigation with the political tensions of the region." (Publishers Review)"McKinty manages a second locked-room success...another standout in a superior series, combining terrific plotting with evocative historical detail." (Booklist)"The tension between McKinty's competing love of tight, formal puzzles and loose, riffing dialogue is what makes the Duffy novels such a tremendous joy." (The Guardian)
